Coffin Saves 1,000 Needless Pounds The HUDSON Six-40 for 1915 weighs 2.890 pounds a seven-passenger car. Built by old standards, such a car would weigh around 4.000 pounds. Cars are all being built lighter, still no other maker has attained this lightness yet So some will argue that sturdy cars can't be as light as this. But thousands of these cars went out last year. In thousands of hand, on all sorts of roads, not a single shortcoming developed.

Never has a car proved stauncher. The difference is simply this: Aluminum takes the place of cast iron. Drop forgings take the place of castings. Better designing combines strength with lightness in a thousand details. One, for instance, is a tubular propeller shaft No More Over-Tax Needless weight was a heavy over-tax on tires.

HUDSON engineers have stopped it In addition, their new-type motor cuts fuel cost 30 per cent. Expense excess is out-of-date. The day of modest size and power and price has come. This new-model HUDSON typifies the car of the future. It is one of the handsomest cars ever built It has many attractions found in no other car beauties, comforts and conveniences.

48 engineers headed by Howard E. Coffin have devoted four years to this car. Come and see the advances the scores of new things they ve accomplished. Touring Car and Roadster. Wray-Dicldnson Sales and Garage Co.
